Simeon the Prophet for the Fontanini 5" Scale Collection

Simeon the Prophet

House of Fontanini – Item #54119

A powerful and expressive addition to the beloved 5" scale nativity village, Simeon the Prophet captures a moment of profound reverence and fulfillment. Depicted with arms raised in gratitude and awe, Simeon represents the faithful servant who recognized the long-awaited Messiah when the infant Jesus was presented at the temple.

This beautifully sculpted figure showcases the timeless artistry that has made Fontanini world-renowned. Simeon’s flowing robe, accented with elegant magenta trim and a silver belt, reflects movement and devotion, while the careful brushwork highlights the wisdom etched in his expression. The detailed folds of the garments and the balanced stance give this piece a striking presence within any nativity display.

Introduced to the Fontanini collection in 2022, this hand-painted figure is crafted in Italy from durable polymer and designed for the Fontanini 5" scale village, making it an excellent addition for collectors expanding their biblical storytelling scenes.

The Fontanini Nativity tradition began more than a century ago in Bagni di Lucca, Italy, in the hills of Tuscany, when Emanuele Fontanini opened his first shop in 1908. What started as a small family workshop has grown into a globally recognized creator of heirloom-quality nativity figures. Each piece is carefully sculpted, molded, and hand-painted by skilled artisans, continuing a multi-generational tradition of craftsmanship.

Today, House of Fontanini proudly carries on this tradition through retail and e-commerce sales directly to collectors and families around the world. For over 25 years, our locally owned small business has celebrated the beauty and meaning of these remarkable figures. From our Minnesota warehouse we proudly share our mission:

“Telling His Story, one piece at a time.”

Whether you are expanding a cherished nativity village or beginning a new collection, Simeon the Prophet adds depth, faith, and historical richness to the story of Christ’s birth.
